(as seen as the nursery today, more about that below) Eating : For breakfast this morning, I'm still eating leftovers from the pre-Bay to Breakers meal I made to eat before the race (and didn't eat, as per usual): pan-fried new potatoes with spring garlic, and a side of Field Roast b
Some days, it's all you can do to keep your head emotionally and mentally above water. I am having one of those days, and not wanting to write goes along with days like that. I know you understand. Regardless of that, though, I still have to post today -- eek! .... ie, (What I've been thin

(Aquatic Park, Berkeley, as seen from my lunch run today) Reading : I've been reading The Rise and Fall of the Third Reich all year so far, but lately I haven't been reading anything because I am really burnt out on it. It's pretty much the most dense book in the universe. I also ju
(as seen on a walk this afternoon) There used to be a time, years ago, when I would come here and just start writing . That appears to have been lost on me for a while now. Why do I fear expressing myself so much? I think it's leftover anxiety from last year, fearing what people would think
